Roselle 3 months

Growing Roselle was never part of my checklist due to the reason that it's a type of flower. Roselle plant is from hibiscus family, and I've had only planted green vegetables so far :D I heard from friends about drinking Roselle syrup too but never tried it myself.

It's only after getting these surprise free gifts from Kak Da Seed that i started looking for information. According to some, their Roselle plants could start producing flowers as early as 3 months, yet both mine still showing no signs since i last checked. I'm not using any type of fertilizer, and they are still in pots. 

didn't post the progress earlier, thought it wouldn't survive lols

  1. I planted all five seeds in our germination tray, with the seeding soil that came together with them in the parcel. Spray daily.
  2. After few days i observed only two seeds were showing first leaves.
  3. Waited for the two seedlings to grow a bit steady before moving them to pots.
  4. After three month they grew taller and taller in the pot but nowhere bushy. I didn't used any fertilizer, just rice water.
  5. Going to move them out from the pot once the intense hot weather ends, and hopefully we will see some progress here.
